We share a birthday! I'll be 59 in May. Does it bother you that people remember it's Cinco de Mayo but not your birthday? I ignore it now but it used to really bug me!
As for age, my grandmother was the youngest person I ever knew, just because of her attitude towards life. Work hard, have fun when you can, and keep on breathing.
A couple of years ago, after several years apart, some friends from college came for a visit. First thing they said to me when I answered the door was "OMG, you don't have any wrinkles!" They were SO amazed. Of course, I'm a bit on the fluffy side so wrinkles get ironed out :-) but I also inherited my mother's skin who's people, ages back, came from England.
Reminding them that, because I'm so fair skinned candlelight can give me a tan, I've never been a sun worshiper. Unlike them who love tanning salons and baking on a beach. I may have had a boring life, in some respects, and people have laughed at my sun hats and SPF 50+ over the years, but I'm fairly wrinkle free now.
